The belief Marvel Studios’ animated What If...? will feature one Marvel Cinematic Universe movie per episode is a “rumor,” showrunner Ashley Bradley has clarified. The first animated series produced by the studio overseen by chief Kevin Feige, What If...? will involve “the majority” of characters from Marvel’s 23-movie MCU, often with multiple characters per episode, but the Disney+ series will not dedicate an episode to every blockbuster produced by the Disney-owned studio.
“That is a rumor. Kevin said that we will be exploring every movie in a new way, but not every episode is about one movie if that makes sense,” Bradley told Discussing Film. “On the reel [shown at D23 Expo], there is this image of a Star-Lord T’Challa because we wanted to see what if the worlds of Black Panther and the Guardians of the Galaxy collided? That was taking two universes, two to three movies, kind of twisting them in new ways.”
Giving each MCU entry its own episode is “not the objective,” Bradley said. “The objective is to hopefully see the majority of characters from all 23 movies. You’ll see multiple characters in an episode.”
That episode cited by Bradley depicts T’Challa, best known as superhero Black Panther and the monarch of the African kingdom of Wakanda, instead following a path where he becomes leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy as cosmic adventurer Star-Lord, the moniker typically belonging to Peter Quill.
“With Star Lord T’Challa obviously, we want to know how T’Challa ended up in other planets? What’s the story there? It’s super exciting to work on because again, it’s seeing these characters and seeing the combination of character interactions,” Bradley said. “Seeing the Avengers hang out together and more recently [Avengers: Endgame] gave us the fun of seeing something like Ant-Man hanging out with the Hulk. What If…? is taking it a step further.”
I might be mistaken but I think Tom Holland was shown among the stars they have attached to this.So I'm guessing they aren't doing Homecoming or Far From Home episodes. Heh.
It's television so they should be safe.I might be mistaken but I think Tom Holland was shown among the stars they have attached to this.
Well, they've only got What If (if we're limiting it to the Marvel shows)...what I've seen so far doesn't necessarily look feature film quality, but it does seem pretty good .Just thought I'd bring this up here as well - new reports say the budgets for the Marvel/Disney+ shows would be between $12 million to $25 million per episode. I believe this is mainly about the live-action shows though, but I imagine the animated stuff might have a bigger than usual budget as well.
The only limitation that we know of currently is they're only going to cover the first 23 MCU movies. But I think they could come up with some decent and surprising enough alternate scenarios for those stories.
Well, I hope that if it gets picked up for a second season, then I could see the limitation being upheld.The only limitation that we know of currently is they're only going to cover the first 23 MCU movies.

Well, they can, should the show get a second season and that it moves away from being limited to covering the previous MCU films.A lot of What If comics dealt with the X-Men, which this series cannot do if its based on the MCU.
"This episode included the Grandmaster and Iron Man," said Goldblum. "So [Robert Downey Jr.] will do a voice in that. And Korg, Taika Waititi, had already recorded his voice for that."
I do wonder why.
